WINDOWS 7 RANDOM LOCK UP
Hello, I am having a problem with my windows 7 computer where it will spontaneously lock up, being unable to response in any way. Nothing works, except to restart my computer. This will happen even when it is asleep. It has been going on for a handful of months now (since last summer) and it is getting very frustrating. Typically it will happen anywhere from every 3 to 4 days to a few weeks in between.
I checked my event viewer, and the following errors have come up since the last lock up:
A timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the ShellHWDetection service.
A timeout (30000 milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the iphlpsvc service.
The server {1F87137D-0E7C-44D5-8C73-4EFFB68962F2} did not register with DCOM within the required timeout.

Since the beginning of last month, I noticed several of the following errors:
The file system structure on the disk is corrupt and unusable. Please run the chkdsk utility on the volume C:.
The file system structure on the disk is corrupt and unusable. Please run the chkdsk utility on the volume OS.
I have a 64-bit version of windows 7 installed. I booted the computer for the first time during the summer of 2010.
Also, since January of 2012, I had to replace the RAM cartridges as well as the hard disk drive.
I run defrag (default windows), a registry cleaner (wise registry cleaner), and malware bytes on a routine basis.
Not sure what exactly is going on here. I’m not much of a computer technical person, but I use one a lot. Thank you very much for your time and help.
